Chapter 16: The Inhuman Welcome
"There's no one behind you, close the portal. ”
Coulson waited until everyone had come out of the boulder portal before speaking to Commander Hill of S.H.I.E.L.D.
"Okay, close the portal, Charles, welcome back, and the people of Ravenhold Manor will be handed over to you. ”
Maria Hill, it turned out that she lived under Stark because of the collapse of S.H.I.E.L.D., and because of Charles's help in this world, she has been staying in S.H.I.E.L.D., but her words made Charles a little inexplicable, what does it mean to "hand over" Charles, what happened?
Looking at the surrounding environment again, Charles felt that something might really happen, the number of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents was a bit too much, Charles's location was inside S.H.I.E.L.D., Hill didn't need to arrange so many agents to wait for the results at close range, these agents were not to protect the portal, but more like to prevent those few aliens from suddenly attacking, and the position of those agents told Charles that his guess was right.
"Can anyone tell me what the hell is going on? Why is it that in just one day, S.H.I.E.L.D., which we have a good relationship with, seems to have become an enemy, Lincoln, answer me!"
Charles glanced at the four Inhumans in front of him, but still didn't remember who they were, so he could only ask Lincoln, who he knew well, in an unkind tone.
"Charles, no, Daddy Cha, S.H.I.E.L.D. lost you, and we don't plan to tell us about it, so we plan to grab this stone and save you back, but S.H.I.E.L.D. doesn't allow it, they plan to continue to delay time, so we have some conflicts, and now that you're back, we naturally don't continue to fight with S.H.I.E.L.D. anymore. ”
Lincoln was nervous about Charles, and little by little he said what he thought and what they were doing.
"Oh, the conflict, who attacked first?S.H.I.E.L.D.?" Charles asked one question after another, but judging by his tone, he had already guessed that it was the Inhumans who attacked first.
"It's us, S.H.I.E.L.D. denied us access to the portal, so we attacked, check daddy, we just wanted to help, there was no other purpose. ”
Lincoln felt the irritation in Charles's tone, and explained with some uneasiness.
"Well, okay, that's it for now, I'll talk about the rest later. Seeing that Coulson had finished exchanging information with Agent Hill and was waiting for his side to end, Charles also stopped asking for the time being, and pulled Laura towards Coulson.
"Charles, Daisy was captured by Ward and hasn't been found yet, so we need to go and get her back, there's no problem on your side, right?"
Coulson explained the situation in S.H.I.E.L.D., Daisy the Shockwave was taken away by Ward, and he needed to be rescued, which was his first job, and asked about Charles's situation by the way.
"It's just a few small problems, I'll take care of it, let me know if there's anything you need about Daisy, I'll come over to help after the matter is over, this guy Ward has offended me. ”
Charles didn't tell Coulson what he was saying about the incident, but he did say that there was definitely a problem with the rescue operation at Ravenhold Manor.
"We will. Coulson nodded and didn't say anything more, he could only say that he also felt that there were some problems with this matter, but he also felt that these problems were some minor problems for Charles.
"Then we'll take our leave. ”
Charles said goodbye to Coulson and the others he knew, then opened the portal, across the street from Ravenhold Manor, and motioned for everyone to go back with him.
The street in the middle of Ravenhold Manor is now devoid of pedestrians, but for the first time, guards appeared, and the guards at both ends of the street saw Lincoln's members of the secret team returning through the portal, one of them quickly joined Lincoln and the others, and the other entered the bar to tell everyone that Charles was back.
There was a burst of cheers from the bar, and everyone rushed out in a hurry, walked up to Charles, looked at Charles with an eager expression, and greeted his return, and Rena also appeared at the end of the crowd, she did not go to the front, but stayed there quietly.
Looking at everyone's eager eyes, Charles paused, and instead of showing his anger, he smiled and thanked these people who cared about his safety.
"Thank you very much for your concern, this time it was just an accident, S.H.I.E.L.D. is still our friend, it's over, okay, let's do what we have to do, by the way, everyone remember to go to the bar today, it's all free." ”
Charles said a few words to calm everyone's excitement, and then decided to arrange an event for them today, and then motioned for everyone to disperse, and at the same time motioned for Rena to follow him with his eyes.
"You four come along, I have some questions to ask. ”
After everyone dispersed, Charles took Laura's hand and said to the four people who still belonged to the secret team of S.H.I.E.L.D. with a serious expression, and then returned to the office with Jessica and Rena.
After Charles brought the guys to the office, he let go of Laura's hand and sat down at his desk, where Laura and Jessica also found a place to sit down, while the other five stood in the center of the room, waiting for Charles' questions.
"Very well, for the first time, I know how much you love me, and at the same time you know how stupid you are, who can tell me, who decided to attack your allies in less than a day after the disappearance of your leader, Rena, don't tell me you don't know anything?"
Charles made a voice in his seat, and the anger that Charles had suppressed just now completely exploded, revealing a chill in his tone.
"It's me, Daddy Cha, it's me who gathered everyone to do this, and it has nothing to do with anyone else, I know I'm impulsive, but I don't think I've done anything wrong, S.H.I.E.L.D. doesn't deserve our trust. ”
Charles asked Rena, but Lincoln suddenly stepped forward, taking all the blame, and his tone was resolute.
Hearing that Lincoln actually rushed up to admit his mistake, Charles gently patted his forehead with his fingers, and looked at the person in front of him with his eyes, judging whether he was the one he knew, and finally from Lincoln's eyes, Charlie felt that his current state was more like wanting to take all the responsibility and end his anger, which made Charles even more angry.
"Very well, so you didn't stop the first heir of this manor from continuing to enter that dangerous place after judging that my former owner of Ravenhold Manor might have had an accident, did you? Lincoln, are you Inhumans planning to completely occupy Ravenhold Manor? Who gave you this confidence. ”
Charles's words resounded throughout the room, causing Lincoln to take a few steps back in a panic, and also causing Laura and Jessica, who were idle, to look at the few strangers in front of them.
